WINDOWS NT/2000/XP CONFIGURATION UTILITY
To add or set up MagTek devices, use the MTCFG.EXE utility. It is installed by the installation
procedure described above. The examples below show a typical setup of a keyboard device and
a serial device. For a more detailed description of the MTCFG.EXE utility, see "Using the
MTCFG Utility (WNT/2000/XP)" below. As with the driver installation, this phase requires the
current user to have Administrator privileges.
A device does not have to be physically connected at the time when it is set up. The driver will
only access the device when it is opened.
The installation procedure consists of two phases: (a) installing the driver binaries and (b)
configuring MagTek devices.
No re-boot is necessary after adding a device with MTCFG.

The MiniWedge is used in the following example:

COMx names currently used).
2. Enter the following command at the DOS command prompt (the example assumes COM5
was selected):
mtcfg COM5 ”MiniWedge” ”FriendlyName=MiniWedge”
3. The third argument (“FriendlyName=...”) is optional and may be omitted if no friendly name
is needed. Quotes are required around arguments if they include spaces.
4. If the device is added successfully, MTCFG will display the following prompt:
Re-starting MTD driver - close all applications using MTD.
Press <Enter> to restart MTD
5. Press the Enter key to complete the MTD configuration–if the operation was successful, the
configuration utility displays:
